Grandpa Ponzi – you will surely be missed. I have the fondest memories of you all the way back to your courtship with Nana Mae. I can remember you coming to visit her with your box full of pastries. She loved you so much! You were a great husband to Nana, a great grandfather to all of us, a great grandpa and friend to my husband. We will all miss you, Love the Lynskey's – Tim, Cathy, Trevor, Kevin & Kirsten.

Papa,
I remember as a young girl visiting you in California. My first time on a plane with me and Natalie alone. An adventure in itself, but nothing compared to the memories I'll have being there. That is when you taught me how to draw Mickey Mouse. Now I draw him for my kids and think of you everytime I do.
You are a special person, with a big heart. I have a wooden Santa you painted I will cherish every Christmas. I'm so glad I got to see you this past Easter and "work" with you every day at the shop throughtout the years.
Rest in Peace, and share your Calamari Pizza with the heavens.
Will miss you always.
Hugs and Kisses
"Miss. America"

Grandpa:
It is hard to imagine the world without you. Whether or not you could make it to a function, you were always there in spirit. I know that's never going to change even now that you are not physically here.
You had so many grandchildren and great grandchildren that it was impossible for you to remember all our names. We were all "Dolly" and that suited us all just fine.
Rest in Pease Grandpa, we love you very much.
